People will probably look at all the faintly pointy stones that are in museums, labelled 'stone age arrowhead' and the like and smirk at what silly sausages we were.
Also, the idea that burning stuff was seen as a good source of power. I read it in a book somewhere, so can't take credit for it, but if an alien saw our planet being soaked in photons all day every day, and then heard us moaning we had an energy crisis, they would think we were crazy. It's like standing in a shower and moaning that you're thirsty.....
Sadly, as for all the people saying about celebrity, or social networking, or low-grade entertainment, those will get worse not better.
The sight of hundreds of people (especially from above) leaving an office block at the same time. All walking slowly with a slight stoop,all looking intently at a small object in their right hand.....

Our shambles of a government (unless theirs is worse god forbid)
They might laugh at the pathetic excuses the 2011 London Rioters gave for their actions
Our paper books, for being so wasteful of wood. In the future, most reading matter will be on Kindle-type pads, or on computers. Hard-copy paper will be rationed to important documents, to conserve trees, which will be becoming an endangered species, with expanding population and agriculture reducing green belts.
Kindles need petrochemicals to be made. Plastics , Oil, finite metals. Books if made from reknewable trees are far more environmentally friendly. Plus they feel and smell nicer

Well, will big business use that as its guiding principle?

I disagree. There always were celebrities and always will be.
I think that will be more prevalent, not less.

Will consumers be willing to pay for it? Big business will only sell what people buy. Consumers drive.
I think that is unbelievable and senseless,even now.
